    Nice challenge, and I believe repetition is the key to get better at both photography and video. Thank you for sharing and wishing you a Merry Christmas if I don’t see you before 😊

    Step 1: go to a photogenic location.
    Real step 1: shoot street photography. You'll know instantly if you're a good or a bad photographer.

    Oh yes, will try this challenge, definitely, to make this succeed it's obvious to produce/shoot pictures ahead I bet for posting. Thanks for sharing a great Video, don't know how many years I'm following you now but I bet it's more than 2 years. 🙏

    This video is spot-on. Seriously! I recently retired from coaching basketball (27 years). What you've said here is 100% correct -- you will only get better at "fill in the blank" when you work on it repeatedly. You want to increase your 3-point shooting percentage? Go to the gym and put up 200 shots a day. You want to become a better freethrow shooter? Go to the gym and shoot 250 freethrows a day. You want to become a better photographer? Pick up your camera and go out and shoot.
    Earlier in 2024 I started a photoclub w/my friends. I call it the Rusty 52-Special 🤣 Cheesy name - yes, but it worked. The goal - post a new photo, based on a weekly theme, every week for a year. Now, because some of my friends are fairly new to photography they didn't really want to post on social media. So I created a shared folder on my OneDrive where everyone in the group has access. Each week I post a new theme for the next week (we're posting weekly for a year, vice daily). I also opened up a Discord for the group where we can talk/chat openly.
    So the OneDrive is where the photos go and the Discord is where I post motivational things (like this very video - thanks mate) and chat with the guys about all things photography. Some of the group have clearly gotten better (faster) but everyone is doing ok. We're in week 34 at the time - but I just wanted to tell you that you are absolutely right -- and I was stoked to see someone on your level take the time to help the community with this type of video.
    Everyone in the 52-Special group can see the posts of the other guys. Sometimes it gets a little competitive, but it's a healthy type of competition and for the most part it truly does make us all accountable. Mind you, of the 9 of us, only 2 have posted every week -- which is fine. The one "rule" I have is that you have to shoot the theme after it's been announced -- you're not allowed to use a photo you've taken prior to that. Make sense?
    Before I put this group together I tried my own "30 day challenge" and learned quickly that it's hard to shoot something everyday. Really hard. Thanks again mate - great video and I know your new 365-day challenge is gonna be a blast -- enjoy!

      Oh cool, my entire childhood was basketball, like from early age to 17, then powerlifting took over, and 7 years of that led me to BJJ, where I hold a blue belt with 4 stripes, and now I'm a dad who works around the clock lol. I have a home gym tho, so I try to get the belly fat some what in check x).
      But yea a group is really fun. I've been enjoying creating this communty a lot. I know not everyone can commit to 1 photo a day. But if I set the standard, then people can:
      1. feed of my motivation and dedication (i have a lot of it)
      2. get inspired and hop on when they feel like, 1x a week, 1x a day for 30 days, doesn't matter.
      I'm doing it for a year, and you can come and go as you want :)

    I did the same challenge a couple of years ago, but my system was that I had to post a photo taken the same day. That was not a good system! 😅 I ended up quitting after about 150 days. Perhaps I should try again 2025 but with this better system of preparing one week ahead!

    • @thaticelandicguy
      @thaticelandicguy  12 годин тому +1

      yea that can be hard lol. I often did that lol. But I think it's better to just go out a few times a month, take a lot of photos, and just make sure you always have a bank that you're proud of :)

      Btw just curious where you referring to that video?
